This shirt wouldn't look out of place in a Japanese fed, what with the strange names and such that they use sometimes.

Loving the bald Billy Graham, and that Rey Mysterio is superb!

I don't know the value of this, just commenting on what an awesome figure this is. Had it back in the day and it got a lot of play in my feds.

Never understood why they went with Jericho scan so much. Went with Austin on this one.

Taz, I believe on an episode of Byte This, said the ONS figure looked like he was wearing a “freaking muumuu.” Jakks made up for it by making the RSE figure. I never heard of him talking about this version. Just seen that figure and aside from the colour of the shirt it's pretty accurate to how he looked at ONS. Fat.

Benoit. Loved that figure and held on to it for years. Great likeness, and I like the attire choice.

Yeah this pretty much sums it up TTL1/2 Smackdown 1/2 and Double Slam 1/2/3 were all brutal, I don't think there was one good pre real scan TTL Head. MAYBE Bossman and Gangrel, but still they were all rough. I also hated the Flex-Ems, and if you remember those.. they had exclusive heads that sometimes were much better then the RA heads like Kane and hurricane and that was irritating Also Some boxsets were kind of lame, if you were paying more per figure you would want some type of exclusive. Kane/Rock/Hogan, and Austin/Taker/Kane were 2 that come to mind that were just blah. I remember buying the "Renegades" boxset from Walmart solely for the Shane figure. The worst part was that, IMHO, that was the best TTL Shane we got and you had to buy a box set to get him. It was the only TTL wrestling attire figure for him they made that the shirt wasn't just painted/molded on.
And then they released the pink dress Stephanie in the Billion Dollar Trio set and I decided "Just No" and never picked her up. I ended up finally getting one of her about a year ago on secondary loose. She can't stand to save her life, her one leg is a good half inch longer than the other.
Flex-Ems were just ridiculous to me. Who on earth would want those?
Also, going back to box sets, weren't there box sets with eight or ten figures in them that just rotted because nobody was willing to spend that much on a single set?
Those massive box sets always looked so cool but we're damn expensive and really, for anyone who wasn't just starting out collecting probably had at least half the figures anyway. Just in different attires.

The 3 faces of undertaker pack would look great in a classic collection - but like you said hard to find these days. Probably the best 3 pack and undertaker pack jakks released. Seems quite a collector piece now a days. Sales for a lot when looking on eBay. There are much better 3 packs released, imo. Great set overall, with the accessories and such, but the parts used is baffling

Great set, though I did only have Benoit. How, that is a brilliant figure. Great attire and likeness. Had that for sooo long.

Awesome set. Picked Raven, such a cool figure, but that Perry Saturn is fantastic too. I had both of them back in the day, and I think Eddie too.

'Poof' like a puff of smoke. Or in this case, dust.. Goldust! I think it's referencing him blowing the goldust from his hand in his early promos. I *think* That's a couple years before my time. Yes of course, I forgot about those early promos.

This looks so good MOC. Congrats. Why does it say “poof” though? 'Poof' like a puff of smoke. Or in this case, dust.. Goldust!

Would have voted for Al Snow as that figure reminds me of a great summer previous of Hardcore Title battles. However, the lack of knee pads kinda wrecks it. That Tazz is great though!

Famous Scenes 2, the best Cactus TTL for sure. Even the Triple H is probably the best tron Hunter fig. Bought this back in the day and played with these figures so much. I pretty much continued their real life feud in figure form haha. Probably my favourite 'two pack' I ever got.

Awesome set! Went with Rikishi as the parts used, the scan and the extras are just a fantastic combination. However that Rock is brilliant too.

Really cool! Just needs the extra lighting trusses to complete it.

Looks great! Do you have any construction pics? Always interested in how everyone makes their 'from scratch' rings.

I only had a few of these figures - Edge, The Rock, Jeff Hardy, and Billy Gunn, but man they were great. Loved the articulation. The hair on some was a bit annoying, yes, but during play was fine.
